A UK dating website by the name of Ugly Bug Ball is celebrating after a couple who met on there just over a month ago are getting married.

The website is for the ”aesthetically challenged” and doesn’t hold back on their home page,  stating:  “Welcome to reality… [A]ren’t you sick of all the twee lovey dovey dating sites that show perfectly pretty people walking hand in hand on a wind swept beach. We know it never turns out like that – at TUBB we deal in reality. If you are one of the millions of people that don’t always like what they see in the mirror, then this is the place for you!”

That ought to make you feel part of a group…probably not the group you really wanted to be apart of, but hey.

Tom Clifford and Janine Walker,, who enjoy a mutual love of junk food and TV dinners, are planning a winter wedding near their respective homes in Stow-on-the-Wold, Gloucestershire.

Clifford, 36, a carpet fitter who has a ”face that makes children cry”, said: ”I’ve been a joke to women for years because of the way I look.” His cover email read: ”Dear Janine, Just seen your beautiful face on The Ugly Bug Ball and would love to meet up. You live near me, so this shouldn’t be a problem. I’ve got a face that makes children cry but, as they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder – and I think you’ll love me too.”

Walker, a shop assistant who lives with her parents, says, “I appreciate that Tom isn’t Brad Pitt, but then I’m no Angelina Jolie either.

A spokesman for the site said: ”This is our first engagement, and we are obviously delighted for them both.”

The best part, the site has given them a free honeymoon to Borth in Wales, saying, ”We offered them the trip to Borth because we have a company caravan there and wish them every success in the future.” A company caravan??? That is awesome!
